Cabbage & Bleu Cheese Soup

I have to admit, my love affair with Bleu Cheese started late in life. Like, 2 years ago, maybe? It wasn’t something we ever ate growing up, and it is a strong tasting cheese, so I sort of had to ease myself into it… this Cabbage & Bleu Cheese Soup was one of the ways I grew to adore it!

When I was growing up, I remember my Grandmother’s favorite place to go for brunch was this place in downtown Omaha, called The Neon Goose. Going out to eat wasn’t something we did much as kids, so it was always a treat, but when we ate there, it was always extra special. The Neon Goose closed in 1999, what a sad-sad day. I was so happy to find out that the owners opened another restaurant in West Omaha about 14 years ago, called Taxi’s Grille & Bar. I began going there for lunch, and loved it so much, my husband and I went there for dinner. It’s FABULOUS! I love their house salad, so I had never ordered their signature Cabbage & Blue Cheese Soup, (that and the fact that I was still “bleu cheese shy”) My husband ALWAYS orders the soup when we dine out. He tried a cup and “mmm’d” his way through it. I HAD to taste it! It was love at first bite!

My Mom purchased an O! -Junior League of Omaha cookbook a while ago, and to my delight, the recipe for Taxi’s signature soup was inside!!

I have made it at home a couple of times now, and it’s so delicious! It’s very rich, filling and oh so comforting. I highly recommend you give this one a try!

I hope that you enjoy it like we do!

Cabbage & Bleu Cheese Soup

This rich flavorful soup is hearty, filling and comforting. Creamy flavors of bleu cheese, cabbage and a caraway are delightful! Recipe for the Signature Soup at Taxi's Grille and Bar, Omaha, Nebraska!

sounds so good!!! i have only liked blue cheese for a few years too! hated cheese except swiss and parmesan cheese growing up but now like many (still hate american & velveeta , doesnt taste like a cheese)

Neon Goose was my favorite place to eat. Loved their House Salad with the cucumber dressing, goose bumps, and spinart dip. We always used to take my niece there with us even when she was little. Her favorite also.

I ate at Taxi’s Grille & Bar for lunch today and had this soup. The first thing I did when I got home was googled Bleu Cheese Cabbage Soup. I cannot believe I found the actual recipe. I am thrilled. I guarantee you I will be making this soup this weekend. I don’t care if it’s 100 degrees out. It’s what’s for supper!!! Delicious!!!
